Upgrading to Samsung's latest generation of foldables and smartwatches doesn't necessarily mean paying the full sticker price. Best Buy is rolling out substantial trade-in promotions across the new Galaxy Z8 series and companion wearables, letting buyers shave up to $1,200 off the flagship foldables or grab $250 in trade-in credit toward a new smartwatch.
Deep Discounts Via Trade-In On The Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8
If you have an eligible older smartphone like the Galaxy S26 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 7, or a recent iPhone, Best Buy's trade-in program provides some big returns when upgrading. The trade-in value depends on the device and condition, but some of the offers feel pretty generous. For example, the Galaxy S26 Ultra qualifies for the full $1,200 trade-in credit no matter how much onboard storage you have—256GB, 512GB, or 1TB.
To further sweeten the pot, Best Buy is offering a $200 gift card with the purchase of an unlocked Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra or Galaxy Z Flip 8, and a $100 gift card with the purchase of an unlocked Galaxy Z Fold 8 (non-Ultra). Put it all together and, in theory, you could score the Galaxy Z Flip 8 at no cost if you have a trade-in that qualifies for the full $1,200 offer, plus you'll get a $200 gift card.
All three devices also come with a free month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate; just be aware that the plan automatically renews (so cancel it before the free month is up if you don't want to get hit with a $22.99 fee).
